So I'm about to graduate from college in May, and I have to do a mandatory internship in my field once I graduate. I'll likely end up at CPS or DCFS (a lot of the other internship programs are being cut due to the economy) and I was wondering about car seats.
I have several friends who've done the same internships and they said they all ended up buying their own seats for emergency pickups (most families didn't use seats at all or had unacceptable ones) and transporting for custody visits because it was easier to have your own and know how to install them and not have to show up at the office and find out that all the agency ones were in use.
We don't get a budget allowance for seats, but I'm actually really stoked to buy some because that means I can keep them and use them on my nanny kids too. I was just wondering which seats I should get. I have no way of knowing the age/weight/gender of the kids I'll be getting ahead of time, so I need a few.
Since I'm paying out of pocket I was thinking a scerena, a maestro (any other suggestions instead of this one?), and a HB Turbo, I already have a LB Turbo, so I think I'd be covered. I do want to stay relatively low-budget because I'm paying out of pocket.
Any other ideas?
